6. Shake Milton

January Stats: GP 13| MINS 24.6| FG% 47.9| 3P% 32.6| FT% 90.7| TRB 1.9| AST 3.2| BKL 0.1| STL 0.8| PF 2.4| TOV 1.9| PTS 15.5

If it wasn’t for an inconsistent 3-point shot in January, Shake Milton could have been as high as fourth on this list. However, he struggled to find his groove shooting the ball this past month. It should be noted he did have a three-game stretch when he scored at least 24 points and he scored in double-digits in nine out of the 13 games he played in this past month as well.

5. Seth Curry

January Stats: GP 9| MINS 28.2| FG% 52.9| 3P% 48.6| FT% 100.0| TRB 1.6| AST 2.2| BKL 0.3| STL 0.9| PF 1.6| TOV 1.2| PTS 13.2

Seth Curry started the month off very hot. He scored 20-plus points in two out the first three games, but then he tested positive for COVID-19. He missed nine games as he recovered and then once he returned. For the remaining six games of the season, he made 7-22 (31.8 percent) from the 3-point line. Hopefully, Curry can find his grove again moving forward.

4. Danny Green

January Stats: GP 16| MINS 29.7| FG% 39.2| 3P% 38.7| FT% 66.7| TRB 4.2| AST 2.6| BKL 0.8| STL 1.1| PF 1.6| TOV 1.4| PTS 10.3

January was a tough month for Danny Green, but it wasn’t because of his play because overall he played well in his role. The 33-year-old 3-and-D veteran played over 30 minutes seven times to begin the new year and even played 50 minutes in the overtime win against the Miami Heat. He did have his first double-double of the season in that game. Otherwise, Green filled his role well last month despite playing way too many minutes at his age.
